Virtual Math Institute Level 2, 6-8

In this level two virtual Institute session, participants will learn to use the five criteria and the four performance levels of the Exemplars rubric to analyze and assess student work.

Virtual Math Institute Level 2, K-5

In this level two virtual Institute session, participants will learn to use the five criteria and the four performance levels of the Exemplars rubric to analyze and assess student work. Examples of authentic student work will serve as the foundation for rich discussions concerning expectations for student performance and guide educators in determining next steps for student instruction. Participants will learn various techniques to facilitate students as they self-assess their own performance. 

Virtual Math Institute Level 1, 6-8

Do you spend the majority of your class time working on calculations and algorithms? Are your students applying their mathematical understanding to solve authentic problems or developing conceptual understanding by using hands-on/digital manipulatives and mathematical representations? Do you strive to create an environment where math talks serve as the foundation for student learning?

Your students deserve rich learning opportunities in math. How can you keep them engaged and incorporate best practices in a remote or blended environment? Join Exemplars expert, Robin Moore, to get practical tips on using an Exemplars performance task as the center point for engaging students in conceptual understanding, application, and procedural fluency.

How do you engage students fully when they’re learning remotely? And how do you activate numerous parts of the brain so they get the deepest benefit? We know that rich problem-solving tasks promote deep mathematical learning. So let us share what we’ve learned about how to use them effectively in a remote environment.

Through the lens of problem solving, this introductory session will provide participants with methods to support and guide mathematics assessment and instruction to support the CCSS for Mathematical Content and Mathematical Practice. At this workshop, individuals will learn how to identify what constitutes a good problem and a good problem solver, to assess student work with proficiency using the Exemplars math rubric and to use assessment results to guide instruction, and improve student performance.

Through the lens of problem solving, this introductory session will provide participants with methods to support and guide mathematics assessment and instruction to support the new NYS Next Generation Math Learning Standards. At this workshop, individuals will learn how to identify what constitutes a good problem and a good problem solver, to assess student work with proficiency using the Exemplars math rubric and to use assessment results to guide instruction, and improve student performance.

Through the lens of problem solving, learn how to measure K–5 student performance against the Common Core. Discover strategies for promoting mathematical communication, reasoning, and higher-order thinking as well as how to improve teaching and learning opportunities for K–5 students.
